Year of Living Blonde by Andrea Simonne

Year of Living Blonde by Andrea Simonne

Starting over is never easy.

Natalie is humiliated after her husband has a midlife crisis and leaves her for an older woman. She struggles through the mess he left behind. After years of feeling invisible, she changes her normally dull hair to a brilliant blonde.

When she tries to expand her Seattle bakery though, she discovers a problem with her irritatingly handsome landlord.

Women usually love astronomer Anthony Novello. The one exception is his new tenant, Natalie. Plain, plump, and persnickety--he's never met a woman more annoying. But when Anthony returns from a telescope observing run, he discovers she's changed.

Despite their battles, he convinces her to go out with him. She has her doubts. Lots of them. However, the relationship grows deeper than either of them expects.

Warning: Contains one hot astrophysicist, a curvaceous and stubborn heroine, steamy sex scenes, a villainous ex-husband, his crazy cougar mistress, and the story of how when opposites attract they sometimes--against all odds--fall in love.

Andrea Simonne was an army brat who discovered she had a knack for developing personas at each each school she attended. Ace, a surfer girl who had never touched a surf board in her life but had an incredible collection of puka shell necklaces, was the most memorable. She eventually channeled her creativity into writing. Andrea still enjoys developing identities, even if they now take up the majority of her books. With her husband and two sons, she currently resides in the Pacific Northwest. Andrea Simonne's website is www.andreasimonne.com.
